Drama as Angry Relatives Force Man to Marry Dead Lover.....Shocking Details

Some angry relatives have forced a young man to pay the bride price of his live-in lover who died recently, warning that she would not be buried otherwise.

The negotiating the payment of lobola 

A man in Mozambique's southern province of Inhambane had to pay the traditional bride price, locally known as "lobolo”, for a dead woman at the weekend, BBC Africa reports.

After the woman died because of complications during childbirth, her relatives forced her young partner to pay the "lobolo", warning that she would not be buried otherwise.

The relatives accused the young man of failing to fulfill his obligations, including being introduced to the woman’s relatives, before the tragedy occurred.

To ensure that the funeral took place, the young man says he had to buy clothes and shoes for his dead wife, agree to pay more than $800 (£630), and hold a symbolic wedding ceremony on 15 December.

A brother to the young man, Irmao do Jovem, explained their dilemma:

"We tried to raise the money they demanded, but we could only put together about $178. So we had to sign a pledge promising to pay the remaining amount on wedding day, December 15th."

A Yemeni employee counts one hundred US dollar notes at a currency exchange office in the capital Sanaa on February 12, 2017.

While the man’s family has conceded to the demands, they condemned the behaviour of the dead woman’s relatives.

However, this is a common practice among some ethnic groups in Mozambique, especially if a man decides to live with a woman, without going through all the marriage formalities.
